La stagione 2015/2016 vede la Compagnia della Rancia impegnata con un nuovo allestimento di CABARET, spettacolo molto caro a Marconi e atteso, che mancava dalla circuitazione nei teatri da oltre vent'anni (l'edizione 2006/2007 aveva toccato infatti solo Milano e Roma) e che ha debuttato, con oltre 10 minuti di applausi e unanime consenso di pubblico e critica, come spettacolo inaugurale della 29ma edizione del Todi Festival.

I have to say that when it comes to Kander and Ebb's "Cabaret" I prefer my Kit Kat Club dirty, my Sally Bowles damaged and my Berlin dangerous. And while the current production at Village Theatre has all of those elements, they're all very safe versions of those elements. And while director Brian Yorkey attempted a very thoughtful telling of the story, often times the pacing was so deliberately slow as to lose any urgency of the moment.

MUSE takes us back to the 1930s to reveal the inspiration for Christopher Isherwood's Sally Bowles - and uncovers a far more complex and talented woman. With her green-painted nails and a string of lovers, Jean Ross (who roomed in the same house as Isherwood) was indeed 'divinely decadent' but far from the air-headed floozy in the stories.

Today in 1998, the second Broadway revival of Caberat opened at the Stephen Sondheim Theatre (then renamed the Kit Kat Klub), where it ran for 2377 performances. Cabaret is a musical based on a book written by Christopher Isherwood, music by John Kander and lyrics by Fred Ebb. The 1966 Broadway production became a hit and spawned a 1972 film as well as numerous subsequent productions. Set in 1931 Berlin as the Nazis are rising to power, it focuses on nightlife at the seedy Kit Kat Klub and revolves around the 19-year-old English cabaret performer Sally Bowles and her relationship with the young American writer Cliff Bradshaw. Overseeing the action is the Master of Ceremonies at the Kit Kat Klub which serves as a constant metaphor for the tenuous and threatening state of late Weimar Germany throughout the show. The revival is currentlt back on Broadway, playing at Studio 54.
